COMPRESSION CIRCUIT FEATURES:

Transparent Optical (LA-2A style) limiting circuit with huge dynamic range.
Dual Compressors for the ultimate slide tone.
Blend control that allows the player to blend in their clean (uncompressed) tone with their compressed tone.
Six instant access presets with the following settings:
- Preset 1: Limit Mode. Ultra fast attack (2.5ms) that clamps any signal and acts as a limiter.
- Preset 2: Country Mode. Fast attack (7.5ms) that is perfectly timed for chicken picking or modern country.
- Preset 3: R&B Mode. Medium attack (50ms)
- Preset 4: Ballad Mode. Slow attack (120ms) setting
- Preset 5: Slide Mode aka ‘Joey’ Mode. Adds an additional internal compression stage in series before the primary compressor. Allows for nearly endless sustain on clean guitar parts ala Lowell George from Little Feat.
- Preset 6: Aux Compressor. The aux compressor is the internal compressor circuit that is used in Preset 5. There are two trimmers located on the side of the pedal that allow the user to adjust the COMP and VOLUME for this additional compression stage.
Side Chain jack/loop that allows an external source (click track etc) to trigger compression. Side Chain loop can also be used with an external effect (an EQ for example) to tailor the response of the compression.

3 BAND EQUALIZER OVERVIEW

The EQ circuit features a studio grade EQ that gives tremendous tonal flexibility to the BLOOM. Based on the legendary Baxandall EQ that is featured in countless studio EQ’s, the Bloom EQ takes this circuit and tailors it for guitarists! We spent tons of time on this EQ dialing it in so it would hit all the frequencies that guitarists need to adjust, and then sweetened it by removing the ear fatiguing highs and lows that can appear at extreme settings.

EQUALIZER CIRCUIT FEATURES:

Studio grade EQ with High Bandwidth and Flat Response at 12:00
+/- 12dB Boost/Cut per control
Center Detents on the pots that make it easier to get back to a neutral or flat response.

BLOOM OVERVIEW

The Bloom circuit is one of the most exciting parts of the Bloom! Designed as both a level booster and sustainer, the Bloom can work as a set boost by quickly pressing and releasing the Bloom footswitch, or by pressing and holding the Bloom footswitch, the Bloom circuit will slowly ramp up the level to the level set by the boost. This ramp up time, which is programmable, can be used to increase sustain on held notes or to match the dynamics in a song. Once the ramp up is complete, pressing and holding the Bloom footswitch again will fade the level back down to unity.

BLOOM CIRCUIT FEATURES:

0-20dB Boost Available (quick press on Bloom footswitch)
0-20dB Bloom Available (long press on Bloom footswitch)
True Boost Circuit. Fully counter clockwise position is unity level.
Totally flat EQ down to sub audio frequencies.
Programmable Ramp Up/Down Time.

EXTRA BLOOM FEATURES:

Programmable True Bypass or Buffered Bypass
Programmable Boot-Up State (which effect(s) are active at boot-up)
